Ocean Survival: I Dominate the Leaderboard by Opening Treasure Chests

Gu Mian was suddenly chosen for a survival game while playing. Fortunately, her luck exploded, and she drew a talent for doubling resources.

Extreme heat, extreme cold, and pollutant attacks ...

Chapter 39 Cooling Down

In the middle of the night, a cool breeze swept in, and Gu Mian shivered as she wrapped herself in the blanket piled next to her, quickly drifting off to sleep again.

As a result, I slept for less than half an hour before being completely woken up by the cold.

I glanced at the time; it was only a little past two.

Why is it suddenly so cold? This weather is so weird.

Despite feeling sleepy, I pulled a quilt from the storage cabinet and covered myself with it. It took me a while to warm up.

After this ordeal, I'm wide awake.

Gu Mian got out of bed and relit the stove. She wrapped herself in the blanket and sat down, stretching out her hands to warm herself by the fire.

"Why is it suddenly so cold?" Gu Mian exhaled a breath of cold air, poured mineral water into a kettle, and put it on the stove to boil.

It's too cold. Let's boil some water to warm ourselves up.

Gu Mian was clearly not the only one who was woken up by the cold in the middle of the night; at this moment, a bunch of people in the chat channel were complaining.

"It's so cold! I'm so glad I didn't throw away my down jacket, or I'm afraid I would freeze to death."

"I envy those upstairs who still have down jackets to wear. I only have a blanket, and I'm still shivering from the cold even wrapped in it around the brazier."

"This game is a total rip-off. It's so hot during the day that I don't want to wear clothes, but the temperature drops so much at night. Is such a big temperature difference reasonable?"

"This is obviously unreasonable, but what can we do about it?"

"Does anyone have a quilt? I'll trade you my brazier for it."

"I don't have a quilt, but I have an extra blanket. Do you want it?"

"The blanket is too thin, do you have a thicker one?"

"Regardless of thickness, keep warm first, brother. It's so cold, you might freeze to death."

Gu Mian nodded in agreement. In situations like tonight's sudden drop in temperature, we should use any items that can keep us warm as soon as possible.

Otherwise, they might really freeze to death.

The cold came so suddenly, and since the temperature had been quite high before, she hadn't stocked up on any warm clothing.

In the trading area, even slightly thicker clothes are selling for exorbitant prices.

At this moment, Xu Kun spoke in the group: "This temperature drop has really chilled me to the bone. Luckily, I have a lot of cotton-padded clothes, pants, and shoes here. Lao Bai, Mianmei, do you want some?"

Jiang Bai: "Give me two sets. The temperature has dropped so much that even a tough guy can't stand it."

Xu Kun: "Hahaha, even the toughest man isn't made of iron. It would be strange if he could withstand it."

Gu Mian was holding a cup of hot water. She took a sip and felt it was a bit too hot for her mouth, so she put down the cup and replied, "I'll take a set. Do you need a quilt?"

Xu Kun was shocked: "Little sister, you still have a quilt?"

Jiang Bai remained calm as always: "Not surprising. Didn't you say Gu Mian is incredibly lucky? I want a quilt."

Gu Mian: "I received the quilt pattern before, and now it can come in handy."

To make a quilt, you need 4 pieces of cotton cloth, 40 pieces of cotton, and 1 sewing kit. I don't have that much cotton on hand, so please provide the materials yourselves and I'll make it for you.

Jiang Bai: "I don't have enough materials on hand either. Let me go and collect some first."

Xu Kun: "I don't have a sewing kit, I'll go get one too."

A sewing kit? She has plenty of those.

Gu Mian said directly, "I have a sewing kit. Just send me the other materials."

Xu Kun didn't stand on ceremony: "Alright, my happiness is in your hands."

Gu Mian: "..."

This person talks really strangely!

The materials Xu Kun sent were just enough to make one quilt, but thanks to Gu Mian's talent, the materials doubled, meaning she earned another quilt.

Just as the finished quilt was sent to Xu Kun, Jiang Bai also collected the materials and sent them over.

Gu Mian didn't make him wait. She sent him the freshly made quilt and then made two more quilts.

Open the chat channel, “[Quilt] Exchange for 10 cotton cloth and 50 cotton, only two quilts available.”

Wang Xuanyi: "Wow, this blanket looks so warm, I really want one."

"I want some too, but I don't have any cotton."

"It's so cold. I've been sitting by the fire, but I don't have any warm clothes to wear, so I can't warm up at all."

"Who's worse off than me? I only have a pair of shorts to wear, and I rely on a brazier for warmth..."

"I'm so smart. I made six braziers to surround me. Hahaha, it's not so cold anymore."

Everyone looked miserable, but Gu Mian didn't have the energy to help others, so she only glanced at them twice before looking away.

The materials needed for a quilt are quite numerous, so Gu Mian simply ignored all the private messages from people begging or trying to bargain.

I had just sold the two quilts I had when I saw Wang Xuanyi's perplexing statement:

"Gu Mian, could you lend me a quilt? I'm so cold I can't stand it anymore. You wouldn't want to see me freeze to death, would you?"

? ? ?

Gu Mian really wanted to say, "So what if you freeze to death? What does it have to do with me?" But before she could finish typing, Xu Kun retorted on her behalf.

Xu Kun: "Are you that close to Gu Mian? So many materials are needed to make a quilt. What if she lends them to you and doesn't return them?"

Wang Xuanyi: "I'm just borrowing it for a bit, I'll definitely return it, otherwise how can a girl like me stand in this cold weather?"

Hearing this, Gu Mian couldn't help but roll her eyes: "What does it have to do with me that you're a girl? I'm not your father. I'm just borrowing you. Who do I know you?"

“Gu Mian is right. A quilt is made of a lot of cotton. How could we just lend it to a stranger?”

"Wang Xuanyi is a green tea bitch, no need to say more."

"To be honest, you're trying to survive at sea, and instead of relying on yourself, you're trying to hold others hostage?"

Jiang Bai: "His intentions are impure."

Many people spoke up for Gu Mian, and faced with the accusations from the crowd, Wang Xuanyi could only reluctantly shut her mouth.
